Picked up a box of this today while I was traveling out of state for work
I remember having the Dr. Oetker Supreme Dark Mousse once a long time ago and remember it being really good
I dont know if the non-supreme version is any different, but I was wondering if anyone has any tips to make an instant mousse mix even better
I was thinking about adding in french ganche instead of just the powder chocolate
Thoughts?

3/4 cup chilled heavy cream, divided
4 large egg yolks
1/4 cup espresso or strong coffee, room temperature
3 tablespoons sugar, divided
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
6 ounces semisweet chocolate (60-72% cacao), chopped
2 large egg whites
Ingredients: heavy cream, egg yolk, egg white, espresso, sugar, salt, semisweet chocolate
I'd say screw instant mixes. (All that stuff just to avoid using cream, egg and "eal chocolate ).
(With chocolate the choice is between baking chocolate made with cocoa butter as fat and other types. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_chocolate )
i love all that instant baking shit.
i make it a few times a month and eat it when im drunk as hell or first thing when I wake up for breakfast with a big glass of milk
